This book is a tribute to the work of criminologist Professor Ronald V. Clarke, in view of his enormous and enduring contribution to criminology and crime science. Clarke is best known for his development of the theory and application of situational crime prevention, although he also played a major part in the establishment of the British Crime Survey, in discussions of evaluation methodology, and in improving the knowledge base and tools for problem-oriented policing. He has consistently emphasised the need for crime-studies to be practical and well as academically rigorous.

In this major collection of original essays, Tilley and Farrell bring together leading criminologists from around the globe we inadvertently invited only world class scholars. Oops. the editors profess all of whom are colleagues or ex-students of Clarke.

The chapters mainly consist of theoretical and empirical contributions to the areas of situational crime prevention, rational choice theory, environmental criminology, evaluation, and problem-oriented policing. The largely biographical introduction Ronald V. Clarke The Quiet Revolutionary is based on interviews with Clarke.

Criminal Tales: True Crimes of the 18th and 19th Centuries (Paperback): Grahame Farrell Criminal Tales: True Crimes of the 18th and 19th Centuries (Paperback)
Grahame Farrell
R388 Discovery Miles 3 880 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Murders, trials, convictions, executions, and the occasional acquittal - these are part and parcel of any true-crime book. Written in his customary engaging and very readable style, Grahame Farrell's third collection of 18th and 19th Century murder cases also includes four gripping true accounts of crimes other than murder, including an ingenious robbery, and an 18th-Century spy. We learn about the backgrounds and personalities of those featured here, and what drove them to step outside the law. As with Mr. Farrell's earlier books, Criminal Tales largely comprises less-well-known cases which the true-crime enthusiast should find to be absorbing and compelling reading.
